Gunsai is now super green! :D

I present you my little passion project, I always loved this terrific Gunsai track mod by antudusun so I felt I had to make a 'Rich Summer' treatment for it.
Track mod can be found here.

Several tweaks have been made, including replacing the pine trees with Fagus Sylvatica, as they are the dominating tree species in Gunma, new grass FX elements featuring ferns and seedlings, leaves, and an extension to make all these look nice (OPTIONAL). Not completely satisfied with it as there are several repititive textures but as for now I think it is definitely an improvement.

"Ok but why the hell is it 200mb?!"
As you may know the original textures were 2k, and as the biggest trees are using textures that have several other stuff on them I had to compensate with doubling the size, this way the textures won't look blurry.

Installation:
Just drop the content of the .zip file into: "X:"\Steam\steamapps\common\assettocorsa\ Folder. Don't forget to enable it in Content Manager!
MAKE SURE TO MAKE A BACKUP OF THE CONTENT OF THE EXTENSION FOLDER FIRST IN THE 'pk_gunma_cycle_sports_center', IF YOU DON'T LIKE MY GRASS EFFECTS, DO NOT PUT THE EXTENSION FOLDER IN 'pk_gunma_cycle_sports_center'.

Latest reviews

I appreciate the attempt and the upscaled quality of the used textures, but there are a few glaring issues that must be addressed before a higher rating is warranted. Firstly, the skin includes an updated ext_config which overwrites the original. Skins can load their own configs, and as such this should be moved to the skin folder, rather than overwriting the original file, which makes a clean uninstallation impossible. Secondly, there are issues with texture alignment which makes some of the Y trees split in 3. At first glance and in motion it's not very apparent but in screenshots and if looking closely it can jump out. Finally, the skin lacks any normal maps, despite changing the apparent surface shape in some diffuse maps.
Verdict:
Fine for driving, and a welcome change to the familiar look of the track. However, this is at the cost of some material inconsistency and visual artifacts.
Thanksss
